Well, I don't believe that you can be overweight and healthy unless it is muscle mass that makes you "overweight". Many overweight people actually are malnourished because they are likely eating unhealthy processed food such as fast food. When you eat this constantly, you are depriving your body of essential vitamins and nutrients. These nutrients and vitamins are essential for building muscle mass, so is exercise. If you are overweight, you are probably not exercising like you should. Unhealthy food choices, low muscle mass, and lack of exercise can dramatically lower one's metabolism. If your metabolism is slow, it takes longer for your body to take in the needed nutrients and vitamins.

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

The identity of a protein has relation with its amino acid sequence. This sequence is determined by the nucleotide sequence of the DNA of the gene transcribed to RNA and translated into amino acids. Protein identity determines its structure and function. The concentration of a protein refers to the percentage of protein that exists in a given solution. One way to quantify the concentration is with a spectrophotometer calculating the absorbance of the protein.

1. What characteristics do the mountains in a mountain range have in common?
lesantik [10]

Answer:

Mountains are prominent landforms that have significant heights above sea level and/or the surrounding land. They are steeper than hills. A mountain or mountain range usually has a peak, which is a pointed top. Mountains have different climates than land at sea level and nearby flat land. Climate is the weather over an extended time period for a specific area. The climate of mountains tends to include colder weather, wetter weather, and thinner air. Thin air refers to the fact that at the higher altitudes of a mountain there is less oxygen to breathe. Also, mountains generally have less hospitable conditions for plants and animals. This leads to quite different evolutionary adaptations for those plants and animals that make higher elevations their home.
